This is the first time I'm buying a Palm and I don't know which one I should get.
I have narrowed it down to these models:
Zire 21:
Pros: The least expensive of the models. The battery pack suppose to last longer than the other models. Cons: Monochrome colours. No expansion slot.
Zire 31:
Pros: Colours. Expansion slot. Cons: Resolution isn't that good.
Tungsten E:
Pros: Better resolution. Music and video. Expansion slot. Cons: Most expensive. I have been reading reports of units breaking down after the 90 day warranty!
I won't be needing the Palm to:
-Surf websites -Send e-mail -Phone people -Play games
My Palm Requirements:
-Keep track of due dates, to do lists -Looking up future dates and past dates for scheduling -Take down notes -A long battery life -Keep track of contacts -Easy on the eyes to read -Keep a log of daily events
Can someone please give me advice and recommendation on choosing a model.

Hi, Seems the least cost model should do what you need (Zire 21) based on your criteria.

I recommend the Tungsten E. While all the models you name will fill the bulk of your requirements, a hi res display is much easier to read. I used to read a lot on my old Palm Vx, but found that the new hi res displays greatly reduced eye fatigue. The characters are better formed and more precise. Compare them yourself in a store before making a final decision. I personally would never go back to a low res display. FWIW.
